For more than a century, The Wind in the Willows and its endearing protagonists--Mole, Mr. Toad, Badger, and Ratty--have enchanted children of all ages. Whether the four friends are setting forth on an exciting adventure, engaging in a comic caper, or simply relaxing by the River Thames, their stories are among the most charming in all English literature.
In the issue of general culture and attainments, we children stood on quite even footing. True, it was always the case that one of us would be picked at random, inexplicably, and without regard to his own preferences to struggle with the inflections of some idiotic language that was long since dead; meanwhile, another, from some fancied artistic tendency that always failed to justify itself, might be told off without warning to hammer out scales and exercises, and to bedew the pointless keys with wet tears of exhaustion or indignation.However, neither would have cared to be the best in areas that were common to both sexes and considered important even for someone whose ambitions did not go beyond cracking whips in circus rings, such as geography, mathematics, or the tiresome activities of kings and queens. Indeed, despite the differences in our individual talents, we were all held at a largely similar dead level-one of ignorance tempered by disobedience.
"IT TAKES ALL SORTS TO MAKE A WORLD." Moly, the courteous and altruistic mole, goes out of his quiet underground burrow and reaches the river, tired of his spring cleaning. There, Ratty becomes his friend and accompanies him on his first boat voyage. As these two friends visit the boisterous and pompous Mr.Toad, the proprietor of the Toad Hall, and the compassionate Mr.Badger of the Wild Wood, the fun and adventure begins. Join the quartet as they journey from one adventure to the next, from Mr. Toad's automobile crashes and imprisonment to the quartet's battle with the weasels and stoats. The Wind in the Willows, one of the most loved stories in children's literature, has been delighting readers of all ages for more than a century. It is still as popular as it has always been.
A deluxe colouring book with a foiled cover, packed with iconic artwork by E. H. Shepard alongside classic quotes! Grab your pens and pencils and step into the charming world of The Wind in the Willows. Join Mole, Ratty, Badger and Toad on their countryside adventures, as you fill their riverside picnics, motorcar escapades and cosy homes with life and colour! With delightful original illustrations from E. H. Shepard, alongside well-loved quotes, this book is a great way to return to a nostalgic world of friendship and mischief.
